Help me identify these cichlids??

the tank is 80 gallons, and up until last night when I took it down, it had 150 pounds of slate and basalt in it, with black sand for substrate. The fish in the tank include 1 bumblebee cichlid, the 2 I can't identify, and 2 jewel cichlids. ALL of the fish were given to me without notice...by different people....and that's why they are all in the same tank, even though they shouldn't be. So if anyone is in the Vancouver Canada area and wants to take a couple fish off my hands.....let me know!!

The tank is now set up with a 1/3 of the slate/basalt that was in it before, and hopefully will stay much cleaner this way.
 
Hard to tell in the top picture. Almost looks african in body design.
However, in the second pic, I can see why Marcus leans to the rainbows. What makes it hard is that the pics are so dark.
 
Rainbow cichlid it is!

I checked out the pictures I found of the r.c. and it's definitely it!!
thanks guys

now I just don't know what to do with them...

the person who dropped them at my place way back in the summer had them mixed with a pair of bumblebee cichlids (one of which is still in the tank). Apparently the LFS told him it was fine to put them together...

obviously, it is not!! hmmm what to do....
